SD16 is showing no sign of snapping out of this awful mood which has gone over two weeks now. Her father is saying she has reverted back to how she was when living at her mothers. He thought having her here with us was solving the problem. Obviously not. Nothing in life seems to give her any pleasure or if it does it is short lived. Her father and I feel we are constantly walking around on eggshells. Apparently she has been like this ever since she began secondary school (and she is in her final year now). Before that she was a happy, laid back and fun child with a lot of friends.
Please help, I really don't think I am cut out to cope with this... the thought of her coming home everyday makes my stomach churn, my eyes are red raw from crying. I feel aggrieved to have given up my home, friends, family, possible career to move to the other side of the world to be with my man and then end up having to put up with this grumpy bitch.
I have done everything I can to help her, to try to make her happy more than her own mother and father ever do. But I am giving up and seriously losing the willpower to continue... Hopefully the doctor will treat her for depression and she will improve but I can't help thinking maybe she is just growing up with a horrible personality. Her mother is miserable and intolerant of people so possibly that is what she is destined to be like?
